And the Hello and welcome back to the Wheel Talk podcast. My name is Abby Mickey. I'm here

with Lauren, Lauren., Lauren, hello?

Good morning everyone.

And Gracie Elvin.

Good evening from Australia.

We're on Daylight Savings Time.

Whoa. We'll get there soon. We'll get there soon. For now, we're here to chat about the role of a road captain.

We had fun last time with the Domics and got some cool input from people about their favorite

domestics, people we may have missed, so figured that we would kind of stick with the topic

in between races. We still got

Kong Chi and Chugbing Island coming up so the world tour season is not over

Even though it feels like it really should be. It's not. We're still going to talk about racing, but for now we're in a

weird lull, so we're going to talk about road captains and a little bit on

gravel worlds. Before we dive into that, this episode of the Wheel Talk podcast is brought to you by the members of the Escape Collective.

We've got multiple tiers of membership over at Escape Collective, depending on what you want.

There's one where you can just get unlimited access

to the site, all the stories that we write on the site,

which are phenomenal.

If I do say so myself, I had two this weekend

that I was pretty proud of.

On the gravel worlds, I just love to write so it's fun when I get to kind of just spew at the page which was basically what that was.

There's another tier where you get access to our discord group, which is just phenomenal or the discord in general.
